Chapter 47 Incoming Troops
Dana sighed over the phone and dissipated the fog so that the helicopter could see to land.
"Yes, I know there is an unnatural fog here. I created it and I am dissipating it now. They will be able to land in under a minute." She was explaining over the phone.
"I will send Karl out to flag them down with a torch, that should be pretty recognizable, right?
Yes, we prepared for a power outage, should the monsters be smart enough to cut the main power.
You're not all that bright either, but you're right here on the phone with me, aren't you? Don't underestimate the monsters."
Karl laughed as he grabbed a pole and tied a rag around it, then dunked it in the grease and lit it up. The torch created a bright flame with thick black smoke as the excess grease burned, but it was impossible to miss in the rapidly thinning fog.
The helicopter didn't land, it just dropped a group of ropes, and a team of men in black uniforms with rifles in hand dropped into the town square and formed a defensive ring. They seemed a bit too paranoid by Karl's estimation, they should have been informed that the threat was already gone, but they seemed to take their jobs very seriously.
"Academy warrior Karl?" The team leader shouted over the noise of the helicopter.
"That's me. The helicopter can land over there, we already cleared the town, so there shouldn't be any more Goblins here." Karl shouted back.
Instead of landing, the helicopter moved to a higher altitude and away from the landing zone, flying in a circle around the town, presumably looking for more threats. The source of this content no/v(el)bi((n))
The team leader grabbed a couple of napkins from the counter, and wrote down a string of numbers and letters on each of them before stuffing them into the empty lunchboxes. Then Dana put them back in the fridge where they found them, and the rest of the team started to enter the building.
"Sir, the area is clear. No sign of life anywhere in the area. We will secure the building now." One of the soldiers informed them in an extra serious tone.
"You can relax, they're real elites from the Academy, not kids playing pretend where they shouldn't be. I'm not sure why we didn't get the message, but when they say that they killed off the Goblins, I believe them." The team leader informed his men, who began removing their face masks and lining up at the coffee machine.
"Best news I've heard all day. I can't believe we got chased out of bed at five in the morning because some pencil pusher didn't know what to do with Academy Elites who don't have an authorization code yet." One of the men grumbled.
The team leader set his mug down and nodded in agreement.
"You have to understand, they're minimum wage assistants. The ones who answer the phone, that is. They live off the minimum subsidy for Elites, and answer the phones at the call centre for elites and government officials, but they're not Elites themselves. They don't have much else, so they like to go on a power trip at work.
Just give them your student ID number the next time they ask, and it will automatically transfer you to one of us. Their job is to deal with local bureaucrats requesting assistance, but when we call, they're just the receptionist.
I'm assuming that the two of you are starting your final year, preparing to go into the military?" The team leader asked.
"Actually, we're in our first year, and they were preparing her to become an Idol. We are both in the practical skills special class, since we're a bit ahead of most, and they sent us here for training without any explanation.
I would assume that they thought that there was still someone here to greet us, since the town was evacuated only a few hours before our arrival, but it is what it is. The situation is dealt with now."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
